Fortunately, I live in a 300 year old town, Edenton, North Carolina, where people inhabit historic homes and evidence of the past is an everyday event. I am in the process of writing a book partially set in the 18th century and incorporate 18th century artwork in my blog posts. Hope I win your book!
